Shownotes

On this episode of Forgotten Cinema the Mike's visit their Memory Warehouses to discuss the 2003 Stephen King adaptation, Dreamcatcher, starring Damien Lewis, Thomas Jane, Morgan Freeman, Tom Sizemore, Jason Lee, Timothy Olyphant, and of course Donnie NKOTB Wahlberg as Duddits.

Michael Butler and Michael Field talk about how making completely faithful adaptations of certain novels don't translate well into film and how driving narrative focus away from your core characters can lead to audience apathy. Or just listen in to hear Field lambast Butler throughout the podcast for having never seen True Romance.

So grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits at the front and rear of the auditorium, and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.
